Our Story: Born on the Shop Floor

Holdall Tools USA was founded by me, John Bliss, out of a genuine need that I and many other techs have been asking for forever. I've been turning wrenches for over 3 decades, starting off as young kid on the farm that grew up helping repair our own family farm's machinery and heavy Equipment.

I then went on to do it professionally, eventually gaining my ford masters in the trenches of flat rate dealership work. Even my hobbies, building go-fast cars, drag racing, and fabricating anything & everything I could get my hands on, of course has to involve tools. All the photos you see of products, videos, social media posts, etc., are all from the shop I spent 8 years building in my back yard. As you can imagine, every product I make is made for me first. If I don't think it's the best on the planet, I won't release it, period!

I set out to do this business for one reason. The "class" of tool organization that I think should exist has NEVER been on the market. We can all go out and purchase AMAZING tools and AMAZING tool boxes to store those tools, but even with unlimited funds, you can't actually purchase the same in something that properly organizes those tools.

Instead, what the market is and has always had is cookie cutter, overseas produced, cheaply made, everything is exactly the same organizers that don't work well and take up WAY too much space of your precious tool box real estate.

I'm changing that. We've all done it. We've all bought "the next best thing" in tool organization only to be disappointed all over again. I've been doing it for over 30 years. I hear it in the messages I receive daily. Ask yourself, have you ever bought a top tier $1000 set of wrenches and then wanted to go out and find another set of wrenches to replace them because they weren't any good? Of course not! So why do we all do that for the very thing that holds all our precious tools? I'm here to stop if for good.

Working directly out of my shop at 603 E 6th St in Delavan, IL, every single product begins with CAD precision engineering, undergoes rigorous in-shop abuse testing, and is custom manufactured to order.

When you purchase from Holdall Tools USA, you are supporting independent American craftsmanship. No overseas drop-shipping, no corner-cutting—just rock-solid gear made by people who actually turn wrenches.
